Luxury villa with golf course view - Privacy - Private beach

Our stay at this beautiful villa was wonderful. It has a lovely view of the golf course, and we loved the open air concept. We did have to drive everywhere so a car is a must-have. The Blue Bay beach is a five minute drive, and a nice small beach that gets a bit crowded but not too bad. I would suggest bringing your own beach towels , as the ones provided are small and only 1 per person. There is a washer in the unit but no dryer, therefore the towels took a while to dry. It would be nice to have more towels available in general. A small inconvenience as everything else was great. The hosts were very helpful and available for any questions we had during our stay. Overall, the villa was clean, comfortable and well located for access to entire Island. Its proximity to Willemstad allowed us to take a taxi into town for dinner, which was wonderful as well.

Very nice stay. The unit is very comfortable and located in a safe environment; close to many things to see and do.

Nice little spot, Klaas and Frans were very accommodating, the resort this property is located on is very nice and has a lot of different activities and dining options available

Overall stay was pleasant for the resort and surroundings, but there were several important issues compared to the listing. The main issue is the distance from the beach: about 10 minutes walking or 4 minutes by car, not 100 meters as indicated. We chose this property for its proximity to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island and had to rent a car (around $750) to reach it. Other discrepancies: dryer listed but not available; natural ventilation not sufficient—without mosquito nets windows cannot be opened, forcing use of air conditioning at night with extra costs; heavy presence of mosquitoes, resulting in around 100 bites in a few days. We had to buy electric repellents, use cortisone creams and even seek medical advice. The apartment is inside a golf area (nice location), but from 8 a.m. there is noise from maintenance machines affecting rest. Interior issues: dated kitchen without extractor hood; fridge leaking water every night (reported); no vacuum cleaner; broken veranda shutter/window allowing constant entry of air, insects and even small lizards; limited kitchen equipment (no deep plates); insufficient pillows (extra requested but never provided). All the above issues were clearly documented with photos. Positive aspects: new sofa and TV, good mattresses, many power outlets, fast WiFi. Management was kind, smooth check-in and appreciated late check-out, but overall the property does not match the listing. Recommended only if aware of these issues.
